Marshall Hampton Reserve is a 1,173 acre preserve in Polk County, Florida. It was acquired in 2008 by the Southwest Florida Water Management District. Its mailing address is 3115 Thornhill Road in Winter Haven, Florida.[1]
History
editThe land that makes up the preserve was acquired by the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) in 2008. The preserve borders Lake Hancock and is across from Circle B Bar Reserve.[2] It is at the headwaters of the Peace River. It includes an oak hammock, mesic flatwoods, and a 60-acre pond. Trails include two loops. The property has live oak, slash pine, sweet gum, and palmetto.[2]
Animal species in the area include foxes, Sherman's fox squirrels, bobcats, and deer. Birding in the area offers sightings of species, including wild turkey, hawks, owls, woodpeckers, warblers, and migratory birds.[3] There are various flowering plants including rattlesnake master, Eryngium yuccifolium, largeflower milkweed, Elephantopus elatus, swamp leatherflower (Clematis crispa) and Mazus pumilus.[3]
In March 2024, construction began on a portion of the Central Polk Parkway (SR 570B) which will cut across the preserve.[4][5]
Trails
editThe park's trail system connects to Fort Freser Trail.[6]
